  2. Ion transport number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_transport_number

    The practical importance of high (i.e. close to 1) transference numbers of the charge-shuttling ion (i.e. Li+ in lithium-ion batteries) is related to the fact, that in single-ion devices (such as lithium-ion batteries) electrolytes with the transfer number of the ion near 1, concentration gradients do not develop. A constant electrolyte ...

  3. Dissociation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation_(chemistry)

    The higher the percentage, the stronger the electrolyte. Thus, even if a substance is not very soluble, but does dissociate completely into ions, the substance is defined as a strong electrolyte. Similar logic applies to a weak electrolyte. Strong acids and bases are good examples, such as HCl and H 2 SO 4. These will all exist as ions in an ...

  4. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

    The E and C parameters refer, respectively, to the electrostatic and covalent contributions to the strength of the bonds that the acid and base will form. The equation is −ΔH = E A E B + C A C B + W. The W term represents a constant energy contribution for acidbase reaction such as the cleavage of a dimeric acid or base.

  5. Ionic liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_liquid

    Protic ionic liquids are formed via a proton transfer from an acid to a base. [26] In contrast to other ionic liquids, which generally are formed through a sequence of synthesis steps, [2] protic ionic liquids can be created more easily by simply mixing the acid and base. [26] Phosphonium cations (R 4 P +) are less common but offer some ...

  6. Electrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte

    Commercial electrolyte solutions are available, particularly for sick children (such as oral rehydration solution, Suero Oral, or Pedialyte) and athletes (sports drinks). Electrolyte monitoring is important in the treatment of anorexia and bulimia. In science, electrolytes are one of the main components of electrochemical cells. [2]

  7. Ionic bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_bonding

    The salt NaCl is then said to consist of the acid rest Cl − and the base rest Na +. The removal of electrons to form the cation is endothermic, raising the system's overall energy. There may also be energy changes associated with breaking of existing bonds or the addition of more than one electron to form anions.

  8. Glossary of chemistry terms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acidbase extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  9. Metal ions in aqueous solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_ions_in_aqueous_solution

    A metal ion in aqueous solution or aqua ion is a cation, dissolved in water, of chemical formula [M(H 2 O) n] z+.The solvation number, n, determined by a variety of experimental methods is 4 for Li + and Be 2+ and 6 for most elements in periods 3 and 4 of the periodic table.
